IV vitamin therapy delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system entirely — achieving cellular concentrations impossible to reach through diet or oral supplementation, and producing effects that are felt within the hour.

What Is IV Vitamin Therapy?

Intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy involves the infusion of a bespoke blend of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream via a slow intravenous drip. Because the digestive system is bypassed completely, 100% of the administered nutrients reach the cells that need them — compared to the 20–40% bioavailability typical of oral supplementation, which is reduced further by gut health, food interactions, and individual absorption capacity.

At PHP Aesthetic-Wellness, every IV therapy formulation is prescribed and administered by Dr Philippe Hamida-Pisal or Dr Jihyun Byun following a medical assessment and, where appropriate, a blood panel to identify specific deficiencies. Every infusion is tailored to the individual patient — there are no off-the-shelf drips. The selection, concentration, and combination of nutrients in each bag is a clinical decision, not a menu choice.

“IV therapy works because it bypasses the limitations of the gut. A patient can eat an exemplary diet and still be deficient in nutrients that simply are not absorbed efficiently through the digestive tract. IV delivery changes that fundamental constraint.”PHP Aesthetic-Wellness, 22 Harley Street

Medical assessment required. Every IV therapy appointment at PHP Aesthetic-Wellness begins with a brief clinical assessment. Where indicated, a blood panel is arranged to identify specific deficiencies before the formulation is prescribed. IV therapy is not administered without a medical consultation. This is a clinical intervention, not a wellness add-on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is IV vitamin therapy safe?
Yes, when prescribed and administered by qualified medical practitioners following clinical assessment. At PHP Aesthetic-Wellness, every infusion is prescribed and supervised by Dr Hamida-Pisal or Dr Jihyun Byun. All components are pharmaceutical-grade, and patients are monitored throughout the infusion. The risk of adverse reaction is very low when assessed and administered correctly.
How quickly will I feel the effects?
Many patients notice increased energy, improved clarity, and a general sense of wellbeing during or within a few hours of their infusion. Skin glow and brightening effects from glutathione and vitamin C protocols typically become visible over several days and are cumulative with regular sessions.
How often should I have IV therapy?
The frequency depends on the formulation and the clinical indication. Energy and immunity protocols are commonly used monthly or quarterly for maintenance, or at specific times of high demand. Skin brightening protocols produce cumulative results with regular sessions every two to four weeks. Dr Philippe or Dr Jihyun Byun will recommend the appropriate frequency at your consultation.
Is there any downtime?
No. Patients typically relax comfortably during the 30–60 minute infusion and return to normal activities immediately afterwards. The treatment is commonly used by patients in London between appointments or during a lunch break.
Are there any contraindications?
IV therapy is not appropriate for patients with kidney disease, certain heart conditions, or those with specific allergies to any formulation components. Pregnancy and breastfeeding require case-by-case assessment. A full medical history is taken at every consultation, and specific blood tests may be requested before certain formulations are prescribed.
